What are your expectations/what are you looking forward for at CCCC?

Leonora Libra: I expect loads of fun and the encounter of wonderful people~

Also I am looking forward to the first and hopefully not only taste of a convention in another country. But more importantly and above everything else I am looking forward to give a good show and entertain/ be entertained by lovely people. To me a convention is all about doing what you love the most. I love performing, and if possible, it would be my greatest happiness if I can provide with just the smallest of entertainment. I always feel extremely overwhelmed by creativity when I go to a convention and it makes my heart burst with pleasure of being there. Even if only slightly, I hope to be able to touch somebody by what I am doing, because I want to be able to give back, even if only the tiniest amout of; what I have been granted from others at conventions <3

Yono: First of all, what I expect from every convention I attend: A great experience with lovely people! Apart from that, as this will be my very first convention outside of Denmark I am very excited to see how it looks, feel the atmosphere, and of course meet a lot of new people!

What will you perform with? Have you made some changes since your qualification at J-Popcon?

Leonora Libra: We are performing with Ouka and Nagi from the game Toukiden: Kiwami. But we try to keep it within our preferred style of acts, which is mainly themes such as: Friendship, love & relation/ connection

This is cosplay is a little different from what we normally do, in that we have in the progress tryed for professional sound equipment, new crafting materials, and there is apparently a screen available for usage so we wanted to incorporate that for the first time in our short life of acting on stage! I am really exited for the show, and the stage we are supposed to be on sounds really impressive!

Yono: We decided that we wanted to make something new for CCCC, so we basically started ”from scratch” again, with new costumes and a new act – from a game called Toukiden: Age of Demons. We are looking so much forward to showing all of you our finished cosplays, and even more so to being on stage in the Netherlands!

 

 

 

Any additions?

Leonora Libra: Thank you for the opportunity for going to C4! And never forget to have fun with what you love! If it stops being fun, then what is the point in a hobby?

Yono: To everyone out there reading this: Thank you so much for your support, and please wish us luck with our performance at CCCC!
